I spent a few minutes letting the machine run, randomly picking the numbers. After seeing the random numbers being picked, it didn't seem as if it was really random at all. It seemed more like it was programmed to go thru a sequence of numbers at certain time intervals. However, this does accurately represent a model that is educationally significant. It will allow for teachers to show their students what a machine that picks out random numbers is like, such as the lottery. This was very easy to use and the explanation of what it does was also very understandable.

This is a neat site. It lets the user mess around with a calculator that is associated with the Romans. I spent about 15 minutes just putting in different numbers and messing around with the calculator. The site also gives us lots of information on the calculator and what errors the user may encounter when using the calculator. This is a great model of what a calculator would look like if there was to be one during the Roman times. The teacher can definitely use this site to teach the students the history of calculators and how each one was different based on time and people. The calculator was easy to use and the instructions were easy to understand.

I spent about fifteen minutes trying to complete this puzzle, unfortunately I was unsuccessful at it. This puzzle does accurately present concepts and models that are educationally significant because it helps show the users in trying to come up with different models to try and slove the puzzle. By using this puzzle in the classroom it will allow for a lot of critical thinking by the students. The use of this software is very user friendly and the directions given are very simple and can be understood by anybody.
